My family usually takes me to the restaurant of my choice to celebrate. And I whine if I don't get cake and money. We don't necessarily celebrate on the actual day, but we try to celebrate in some way. Birthdays aren't as huge as they were when I was younger, but in my family it's still important to do something to celebrate, even if it's something as small as cake.

wth? you guys hate b-days , that stinks. Do you guys even put on a plan to make every b-day a successful and fun time? >:[ . Having friends/Family/relatives are great!! seeing them makes you have a cool smirk and be glad they could come! and on the plus side. Free Gifts of clothing/money etc :O .

O.O I like celebrating birthdays X3 there fun, especially because U can have an excuse to have a fun and friendly get together =3 I like Birthdays, I dont care if I get gifts or anything but spending time with people is fun

But I don't need birthdays to celebrate with friends and families or just to get close to them. Why wait for your birthday to get close to them and have fun when you can do those everytime a chance comes up or every month?

Then again, my parents, siblings, and I either always go out to eat or celebrate birthdays at home with lots of food!

Oh yeah..I like to just disappear. Usually I turn off my phone(generic birthday txts and messages are lame) and go hang out with a friend who doesn't know its my birthday and take them to lunch or a movie and go buy something cool. Gotta enjoy the downtime ya know? I always wondered why people don't celebrate their birthday or seem depressed on it.

Nah, my mom makes a big deal out of it so I just let my family take over lol. My siblings are older than me and we still get the traditional get together at my moms with our favorite dinner and cake XD

Yep. Huge parties ever since! I doubt my next one will be something big. I'd prefer to keep it simple now a days.
AND COME ON, WHO DOESN'T LOVE BIRTHDAYS?!Life isn't about surviving the storm. It's about learning how to dance in the rain!".
